House Sitting Ellison

“Alexa was such a superstar with our dog Ranger. I would recommend her to anyone! Our pup has separation anxiety and Alexa knew straight away what would make him feel comfortable with me leaving. So happy we found her! Thanks again, Alexa :)”

“Yolanda was an amazing sitter for my Chi, Rollie, while I was away for 4 days for the first time in a long time — he has separation anxiety, so that was a big deal. She earned his trust and took him on lots of outings, including to restaurants. I came home to an excited but relaxed, happy, and healthy Chihuahua. Highly recommend her for any pup who needs fun, patient, and loving care! Thanks Yolanda, I hope I can book you again for my next travels!”

About: I’m an experienced and dedicated animal lover who has cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and reptiles. I treat every pet as if they were my own - providing them with love, attention, and the same level of care I’d give a cherished family member. I am available any day - please contact for availability or submit a request - I try to be flexible to fit your scheduling needs! On our walks I will take your dog on a hike, a less intense nature walk, or even stay more in urban areas depending on yours and your pets preference if known. At your home I can take your pet for bathroom breaks, clean up messes, provide feedings and water, scoop cat litter and poop outside and play with them to keep the active and stimulated!

“Albina was so sweet with my dog, Joey. She watched him for a few hours in the evening. He had a short walk and some playtime, and she was the perfect company for him. We received plenty of updates that helped put our minds at ease. I would definitely have Albina look after Joey again!”

“Jocelynn did a great job! It was the first time I couldn’t take my senior dog with me and I was a bit anxious. But Jocelynn kept me updated letting me know that Hudsin was just fine and being her goody self. The house was exactly how I left it when I got home and I could tell Hudsin was well taken care of!”

“Georgia is a gem in pet and house sitting and a pleasure to work with all around. Our high needs cats made it impossible for us to travel without worry for years. Now we can go away, knowing that our pets are in good hands within their own environment. Our place was amazingly clean when we arrived home and most importantly, our pets were content. Communication was A+ and the pictures we got daily set our minds at ease. We would not hesitate to rebook Georgia for our next vacation, our expectations were exceeded!”

About: Cats have been a part of my life since I was seven years old, when my mom surprised me with my first kitten, and my love for them has only grown since then. I have more than 20 years of experience caring for cats, including fostering with the Okanagan Humane Society, in-home pet sitting, and fostering cats who ultimately became part of my family. I currently share my home with three former foster cats. I have a naturally calm and patient demeanour, and I often find that shy, nervous, or less-social cats will gravitate toward me. I take the time to get to know each cat’s personality, routine, and individual needs rather than expecting them to all behave the same way. I’m also comfortable providing hands-on care, including nail trims, bathing, and administering medication when needed. When a cat stays with me, my goal is to provide a safe, calm, loving environment where they can feel comfortable, respected, and cared for while their family is away. I am currently in the process of changing careers and am not working full-time, which allows me to make pet care a meaningful part of my daily routine. I have the time and flexibility to provide cats with consistent attention, companionship, and individualized care throughout the day, as well as space for overnight boarding. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and with more than 20 years of experience fostering and looking after cats, including my three former foster cats, I would be happy to use this time to help other families feel confident that their cats are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away. I enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality and routine, and my calm, patient nature helps me provide a peaceful environment, especially for shy, nervous, or less-social cats. I live alone and have a separate spare room where your cat can have a quiet, private space to settle in and feel safe\. I’m able to provide lots of one\-on\-one attention, companionship, and play throughout their stay\. If introductions to my resident cats are appropriate, they’re done slowly, patiently, and always supervised, following each cat’s comfort level and body language\. There’s never any pressure to interact—your cat’s comfort and happiness come first\! I also have the flexibility to provide overnight care in your home when needed, so your cat can stay in the comfort of their own familiar environment\.

About: I have a lifetime of experience working with all sorts of dogs, including puppies, elderly dogs and dogs requiring special care and/or medications. I am also experienced in dog training and grooming. I’m currently a student meaning I spend most of my time at home. Doing online classes can make it difficult to have typical a 9-5 job, being one of the reasons I started dog walking and sitting. As well as it being a passion I’ve had since a very early age. I have a home with a fenced in open space for your fur-babies. As well as many hiking trails located nearby for your pups to explore! Potty breaks every two hours as well as 2-4 walks a day.

“Erik was GREAT with our two dogs and proved trustworthy while staying at our place while we were away for a wedding. Did all we asked of him. Our dogs love him and we would happily use him again.”

About: I have grown up my whole life with animals. I currently have four dogs and four cats at home. I truly believe pets add so much love to the household. my hours are very flexible and change everyday. I work shifts at a local restaurant in oyama and also at mission hill winery. I’m usually free in the mornings and afternoons/nights vary. I cannot bring pets into my apartment, but will do whatever is needed at a clients home:) obviously each home is different and i will cater to needs, for example taking the dogs for a walk if there is no yard or constantly keeping an eye on the pet if they like to get into things.

“McKenna is lovely, she left our place exactly the way it was when she arrived and more importantly our cat Lucy seemed relaxed and well taken care of when we got home. I also love that she sent us pictures every day!”

Lee M.

“Lora was super friendly at the meet and greet and was great with both of our dogs. She sent an update every day while we were which was much appreciated! The dogs were clean and happy when we came home ?”

About: Skills: Excellent cuddler Proficient in head scratches and belly rubs W-A-L-K... yes, yes yes! Master in litterbox/poop cleaning Not afraid to use the word “no” I would love to help keep your good boys and girls happy and healthy! ...i’m much more interested in dog walking as I work a full time job, but i’m open to pet sitting as well. Experiences: Besides having a mischievous house goblin of my own, I used to pet sit for my neighbours dogs and cats quite frequently. Which involved feeding, cleaning, brushing, walking or letting them in/out of the house. So I understand the love and care that needs to go into looking after your precious fur babies. I would love to chat with you or get walking soon! I'm currently not committed to a full-time job, so i do have flexibility when it comes to accommodating various pet sitting jobs. While I love caring for animals, I also appreciate having time for personal pursuits and maintaining a balanced lifestyle. Therefore, I aim to find a schedule for pet sitting that allows me to provide excellent care to animals while still having time for myself and other commitments. When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client's, I prioritize respect for their space and safety. I pet-proof my environment by securely storing food and keeping plants out of reach. Consistency is key in behavior management, with positive reinforcement for good behavior and redirection for unwanted actions. I remain vigilant for signs of illness, ready to take prompt action in emergencies.

About: I have a 6 year old pup. Been pet sitting for over 8 years now. I just love doggos and wanna make some extra cash :) I work Tuesday, Thursday afternoons and all day Saturdays so that makes me available for Rover on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I walk my dog everyday so I can bring him along if your dog likes the company :) I treat dogs with patience and kindness. I like to go on long walks on nice days and take pups to the dog park. Cuddly and playful dogs are my fav :)

About: I am an active & very mobile lady who can offer various types of walks from leisurely to high energy, rain or shine. On leash is preferred but for well trained dogs I will consider off leash. Pick up and drop offs are available for one hour walks. Your dog/s should be dog friendly but if not then I will work with you so your fur baby can have the best experience possible. I can administer medication. As a responsible, skilled, current small dog owner, and former two large dogs & cat mom, your animals will be treated with lots of compassion and love. I will text or email pictures, videos and memos to keep you updated every step of the way. House sitting available.

“Emma did a great job taking care of Piper. She updated me on the days activities and provide pics. I would be happy to have Emma look after Piper again.”

About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and am fortunate to now have a small Pomeranian girl who is VERY sociable. She gets along with any dog and would be present if your dog is staying at my house. I love dogs and would provide the best care for them wether just a walk or pet sitting. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention, exercise and companionship they need. I genuinely love spending time with animals and am happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, playtime and pet sitting throughout the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I will always follow your usual routine, feeding instructions and any specific care needs you provide. I’m attentive, responsible and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

“Faith is a wonderful dog person. Our timid sensitive dog fell in love with her immediately. She is very reliable and we felt tolaly at ease having her care for our pup.”

About: I have several years of hands on experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, high-energy breeds, and senior animals with special needs. What sets me apart is my patient and intuitive approach I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and routine to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’ve helped with leash training, basic obedience, and administering medications to older pets. Whether it’s energetic playtime, gentle walks, or quiet companionship, I adapt my care to suit your pet’s needs. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to care for your pets. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or quality playtime, I’ll make sure your pup gets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced yard. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, supervised environment where pets feel safe, and loved.

“This was the first time we used Chantelle's services, and we were very pleased with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. You know she was great when your dog was sad to see her leave ... lol. Thanks again Chantelle!”
